Question 1

What does the £750 Responsible AI Assessment include?

Accepted Answer

The £750 assessment includes a 60–90 minute guided review of your current AI use and tools, workflow and automation opportunities, candidate information and governance, human oversight, and workforce enablement needs. The practical activities map where AI touches your work, what information it uses, who is accountable and where human judgement needs to remain visible. It is a practical business assessment, not legal advice, formal regulatory certification or a penetration test. Use the assessment enquiry form at /assessment#assessment-enquiry to discuss your context.

Question 2

Who is the assessment for?

Accepted Answer

It is for suitable UK recruitment agencies with 5–50 employees. It can help teams that are not using AI yet, exploring possible uses, piloting AI in some workflows, or already using AI day to day. Relevant areas include sourcing or matching candidates, screening or shortlisting, candidate communications, administration and internal operations. Use the assessment enquiry form at /assessment#assessment-enquiry to explain where your agency is today.

Question 3

What will we receive from the assessment?

Accepted Answer

The assessment delivers prioritised findings, a Responsible AI Action Plan, practical 30/60/90-day recommendations and a 30-minute findings discussion. These are assessment deliverables to help you decide what to do next; they are not guaranteed business results. Use the assessment enquiry form at /assessment#assessment-enquiry to ask about fit.

Question 4

How is candidate information considered?

Accepted Answer

The assessment considers where candidate information enters AI-supported workflows, what boundaries are needed around its use, who is accountable for decisions and communications, and where human oversight must remain visible. This responsible-AI review does not provide legal advice or make an unsupported compliance guarantee. Use the assessment enquiry form at /assessment#assessment-enquiry to share the workflow or concern you want reviewed.

Question 5

What happens after I send an assessment enquiry?

Accepted Answer

Mainspring reviews the context you share and then follows up about whether the assessment is a fit and what the right next step is. Sending an enquiry does not confirm a booking or payment. Use the assessment enquiry form at /assessment#assessment-enquiry to start that conversation.
